I just wanted to say thank you so much. I have the same system and for the longest time i could not find instructions to back up just one file. Not even Lorex site has anything to help. Great job bro! Saved me hours.
Thank you for your help! We don't often have to go back and save clips from our security cameras so having to navigate through the Lorex system is such a non intuitive and janky experience. very very frustrating! I just spent 1.25 hours trying to save a stupid clip. From the playback window where you can supposedly "cut" and "save" a clip you get now feedback as to whether your your clip was saved or where it went. I had to follow your instructions to then find the clip ( multiple clips since I had now idea i saved more than one.) It's a shame Lorex can't make this easier and provide options to the Ring cameras and what not. I know my DVR is like 1-2 years old (D871A) but dang this was a pain! Thank you again!
I feel like I just took a trip in a time machine. Does LOREX think it's 1998? Exporting a saved clip should be far easier than this. I'm floored that you can't simply share a saved clip from within the LOREX Home app on your phone with one tap. I hated the fees that I had with my old Nest camera system, but their software is lightyears better than this! Ugh.
Hi ! I have a few questions I’d like to ask : I have a video that I need to determine how it was downloaded from the drive … and if the data of the dates /time was manually installed in the video.. Is it something you can help me with? What’s the best way to contact you ?
The UI is so not intuitive or easy to use. I have motion lights and it keeps stopping for the pre-roll, stops for motion sense, and finally stops again when the flood lights come on. Then it misses the important parts of what happens. Totally stupid. Lorax should have continuous recording just like the old Sony VCRs did back in the day with a damn jog wheel so you can quickly find the spot you want then hit EXPORT!!!!!! EXPORT!!! Not backup. Why the hell would you call it "back up".. Nonsense.
9:22 you have that dreaded (my term) video codec 264, produced by dvr(s) which almost no program will open / play. "Interface"? Horrific. Knockoff Amcrest dvr uses a worse counterfeit of that Lorex interface... As long time user of various dvr(s), I think dvr systems are on way out. Wlifi and internet systems available today, no dvr needed.
Wow. Right back to where I was 2 years ago. It still doesn't work. VLC Player won't play any of these files. MPC Player wont play any of these files. Windows Media Player wont play any of these files. Windows Movie Maker wont play any of these files. Lorex sucks!

Appreciate you making this. It’s def not user friendly or I just don’t have the patience
Yes i agree, Lorex is setup for more of a professional setting than a common consumer setting.
great video!! Lorex is soo-o-ooo complicated...so this was great! Thanks
Nice! Thank you for not using any obnoxious repetitive canned background music. You might want to move your ceiling fan, though.
Thanks the video was helpful, not your fault Lorex is behind the times.....Appreciate you sharing this.
VLC PLAYER will play any file format. Including security footage.
No it wont

How am I able to hear the audio of my recording
it is likely your cameras do not capture audio, the ones shown here do not have a built in microphone
Great video. Thank you.
My windows 10 pc won't let me play these mp4s on anything except vlc, and I can't put them into any video editors either.
Open the MP4 on your Mac with Preview instead of QuickTime
Why can't I change the time to record, it lets me put the time if it's under 12 but not above......???
So where did your mouse plug in?
The box has a usb in the back, actually i think it has two usb ports in the back and one in the front. I have a wireless mouse for it.
Hey there, good video. I have a question though, how to export the whole clip as a single file? Please help me out
On my Lorex NVR it gives you the option yo combine both videos or all videos to 1
I have down loaded it to a flash drive. My problem is will not play on a IBM computer. I have tried all three and will not play
Thanks, you helped a lot.
Thanks
I learned how to backup video onto a USB how do I replay that video now?
How can I delete a specific clip?

This doesn't work on WINDOWS neither
How can i delete recordings on this?

Use VLC media player
well that's wonder full I don't have a backup.

Lorex does not make the camera or the dvr. They are programmers and are inept.
